IAM Security IT Architect

At Azqore, we understand that information security is more than a necessity – it’s a passion. That’s why we’re looking for an security architect who shares our commitment to excellence and the protection of our banking partners.

The IAM Security IT Architect defines and governs secure application architectures, with a strong focus on digital identity, authentication, federation, and authorization. The role translates business, regulatory, and cybersecurity requirements into scalable architecture patterns and guides delivery teams from design through implementation and operation.

Required Technical Expertise:

• →

  Advanced knowledge of SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and WS-Federation, including protocol flows, assertions, tokens, scopes, claims, and trust models

• →

  Strong command of authentication methods, including phishing-resistant MFA, FIDO2-based passwordless authentication as well as Passkey, adaptive access, and step-up authentication.

• →

  Hands-on knowledge of identity and federation platforms, ideally including WSO2 Identity Server, Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), Microsoft Entra ID (SSO and Conditional Accesses), and Keycloak. But other experiences in other solutions like Okta, Ping Identity or Forgerock will be considered.

• →

  Good understanding of SPA security architecture, including browser-based threat models, secure use of tokens, cross-origin controls, and the security benefits and trade-offs of the Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) pattern.

• →

  Optional Working knowledge of privileged access management, PKI, cryptographic key management, and hardware security technologies; exposure to CyberArk PAM and enterprise HSM/KMS platforms is highly desirable.

• →

  Familiarity with zero-trust principles, cloud security architecture, container platforms, CI/CD security, and infrastructure as code.

• →

  Ability to interpret regulatory, audit, and risk requirements and translate them into effective technical controls.

Qualifications and Experience :

• →

  Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in computer science, cybersecurity, information systems, engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.

• →

  Typically ten or more years of experience in IT IAM architecture, application security, IAM, software engineering, or related fields.

• →

  Demonstrated experience designing and governing enterprise authentication and federation solutions.

• →

  Proven ability to influence multidisciplinary teams and communicate complex risks to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• →

  Certifications in the administration of authentication, identity, or federation platforms are considered an advantage.

• →

  Certifications in offensive web application security and web penetration testing are considered an advantage.
